cpu: Allow storing an invalid HTM checkpoint
Commits 02745afd and f9b4e32 introduced a mechanism for creating checkpoint
objects for hardware transactional memory (HTM) and Arm TME. Because the
checkpoint object also contains the local UID of a transaction, it is
needed before any architectural checkpointing takes places. This caused
segfaults when running HTM codes.
This commit allows ISAs to allocate a checkpoint once at the beginning
of simulation. In order to do that we need to remove the validity check
assertion; the cpt will become valid only after a first successfull
transaction start
